By this attachment of the beam to the moldboard a perfectly-central draft is obtained for the plow, and a steady support of the mold board by a direct or positive connection with the beam is eli'ected.

What is here claimed, and desired to be secnred by Letters Patent, is-

The lug" b on the inner side of the moldboard D, in combination'with the beam A, the bolts 0 d, and sheath 0, the whole being arranged substantially as and for the purposes herein set forth.
